40 goats and 20 cows

[olyclimber]

you've got me rolling on the floor laughing my ass off. the fine and intricate subtlity is dancing through my synapses.

 

nice page bottom, btw.

[knelson]

See? See how subtle that was?

 

You're welcome.

[olyclimber]

are you a speech writer for W?

[knelson]

I can only dream. But no... it is not I. I do not have the fine mental capacity to draft words as eloquently as...

 

"Because the—all which is on the table begins to address the big cost drivers. For example, how benefits are calculate, for example, is on the table; whether or not benefits rise based upon wage increases or price increases. There's a series of parts of the formula that are being considered. And when you couple that, those different cost drivers, affecting those—changing those with personal accounts, the idea is to get what has been promised more likely to be—or closer delivered to what has been promised. Does that make any sense to you? It's kind of muddled. Look, there's a series of things that cause the—like, for example, benefits are calculated based upon the increase of wages, as opposed to the increase of prices. Some have suggested that we calculate—the benefits will rise based upon inflation, as opposed to wage increases. There is a reform that would help solve the red if that were put into effect. In other words, how fast benefits grow, how fast the promised benefits grow, if those—if that growth is affected, it will help on the red."

 

But I can dream, can't I?

I'd trade 40 goats and 20 cows for 10 female hogs and 10 male rabbits.

"People make suggestions on what to say all the time. I'll give you an example; I don't read what's handed to me. People say, 'Here, here's your speech, or here's an idea for a speech.' They're changed. Trust me."

 

I mean c'mon... that's really subtle. To write a speech poking fun at yourself... the speech writer. Subtle man... subtle.

You horoscope says: Don't try to do anything or say anything today. You will only make a fool of yourself.

True, even you, with your mastery of the subtle, cannot match the amazing wit and power of W and his posse.

[olyclimber]

Oh, yeah?

Well done. Do you feel really proud of yourself right now?

[Dechristo]

You horoscope says: Don't try to do anything or say anything today. You will only make a fool of yourself.

 

Ok, I'll play it safe... I won't quote you anymore today.

[olyclimber]

since you're so deadset of acting the fool, i'm not going to try and stop you.

[olyclimber]

trust me

[Dru]

I don't believe male rabbits are called "bucks". I believe they are called "Bugs"

[Dechristo]

Oh, don't worry. At any moment, your strong suit of frivolity will push-off your momentary cloud of, well, I don't believe it's stupidity... so it may be, dark vapors of malice.

[olyclimber]

spoken like the true prince of frivolity that you are

[Dechristo]

I don't believe male rabbits are called "bucks". I believe they are called "Bugs"
